Great question, @dragon-snapper

We’ll shoot a video on this, but I can give a quick answer here.

In short, definitely!

First of all, why is your timetable so long? Why not publish this year?

Second, I think it’s a great idea to talk about your novel. In fact, the more the better!

Did Disney keep it a secret when they were planning The Force…[Read more]

@Sam-Kowal ha! Well, remind me, and I will. ;P

And YES. Depth is everything. If you can boil your entire world down to a single deep, resonant core story/concept, so much the better for you. Hard to stress enough how important that is. Focus on what you have and make it so magical you don’t have to go look for other things to distract you.

@slylilhuntress  Hello and welcome!!!  Looking forward to seeing you around the forum!  🙂

@Daeus I’ll have you know I was racing to get that typed out before you posted and said all my stuff for me. XD

No, good points though. Maps are important… I have them… in my head… XD Allegorical and historical elements too. Oooh ooh, in fact @Joy, I actually have a cool thing for you. Four ‘pillars’ for you to figure out, that’ll give you…[Read more]

@Joy excellent question. Someday I want to write a book on worldbuilding, but I’ll try to refrain from dumping the entire tome off on you right here. XD

The first thing, I think, is to realize that worldbuilding is not so much a list of facts about where your story takes place as it is a key— like the key on a map— to discovering why your…[Read more]

@rochellaine  😂 Hahahaha!  Thank you muchly.

@daughteroftheking  *bows*

@kaya-young  Thanks!  I just copy and paste pictures into PowerPoint so that I can have all of the collages in one place.  I usually just find pictures on Pinterest and sometimes just Google.  🙂

@jenwriter17  Thanks for tagging me!!!  🙂 🙂 Here’s the best I got:

A Narwhal Fight

There once was a Narwhal called Lou,

who was proud as a dolphin, it’s true.

He owned a small ball

that would bounce up and fall

back into the ocean so blue.

There was also a young Narwhal that,

liked playing where Lou often sat.

This Narwhal was I…[Read more]

@rochellaine @jenwriter17  Welp, I gotta head out.  Happy writing!  🙂

@rochellaine  Oh no you’re good!  I didn’t realize you were tagging people in the Comic Poem Tag topic…I thought you were just working on a poem to post on the forum to be critiqued or whatever.  *sighs*  My brain sometimes.  🙂

@rochellaine  Oh, oh!  Me too!!!!  *jumps up and down*

@jenwriter17  I definitely will join in with the reading, but I probably won’t be able to discuss too much *coughschoolcough*.  This is a great idea!

@rochellaine  You know what?  I’ll just leave….😜

jkjkjk

I am writing the second book in my trilogy…and brainstorming about prophesies, names and crosswalks (don’t ask).  What about you?

@jenwriter17 @rochellaine  Me is here.  😉

@jenwriter17  Me too!  They’re fun to make.  And thanks.  🙂

@Dekreel the greatest thing about these is all the inside KeePer jokes. XD

@epicaddie2  Awww…sure thing!  How old will you be?

@Ethryndal yeah. What they said. XD

@notawriter  Why, thank you!  I know, right?  Owls are just completely awesome!  Oh, sure! I love curiosity; it’s a common disease among writers.  I suffer from it myself.  🙂

Keegan’s code name for the organization/agency she works for (which is currently nameless) is Agent Owl because she is uncommonly wise for her age.  So, yeah.  I haven’t…[Read more]
